Meadow Valley .5
All designer Ivy Serrano wants is a fresh start. But instead, her Meadow Valley homecoming includes an electrical fire, a trashed custom dress, and a very handsome fireman who knows how to push all her buttons. Lieutenant Carter Bowen may set off sparks of his own, but the last thing Ivy needs now is town gossip . . . or to risk loving another firefighter.
New to small-town living, Carter is determined to prove himself, both at the station and at the fledgling dude ranch where he volunteers. That means no mistakes, no distractions, and definitely no Ivy. Yet there's something about the sassy shop owner that he just can't resist. As things heat up between them, Carter's more certain than ever that she's the one. But can he convince her they have a future worth fighting for?
Meadow Valley #2

Though he and Charlotte are calling their relationship fake, Ben's heart says otherwise. Two months with Charlotte isn't nearly enough. Will Ben be able to prove he's worthy of her for real before their time together is up, or will she leave Meadow Valley -- and him -- forever?

Meadow Valley #1
Delaney Harper thought she'd seen the last of Meadow Valley two years ago after she divorced her lying, cheating, gambler of a husband who left her broken-hearted and, well, just flat broke. But news that her ex sold their property---without legally removing her from the deed---means heading back to claim her share of the land---and possibly her dream.
Sam Callahan, co-owner of the Meadow Valley guest ranch, is barely keeping his head above water. He bought the land for a steal, but keeping a new business afloat is another story. When a gorgeous blonde barges onto his property on a quiet Friday afternoon insisting he bought the place in a fraudulent sale---and that she's there to prove she still owns half the land---Sam realizes he's got much more to worry about. He could lose everything---including his heart.
Meadow Valley #3
Jenna Owens spent her young adult years helping raise her three teen nephews after they were removed from their abusive father's care. Now that they're grown, it's their turn to take care of her with the perfect gift: a stay at the Meadow Valley Guest Ranch for her and her supposedly psychic chicken, Lucy. Colt Morgan---one of the owners of Meadow Valley Ranch---is in town visiting his sister and has offered to give Jenna and Lucy a ride. But a storm leaves them stranded for a night in a farmhouse guest room where things get cozier than expected for the barely introduced travel companions.
Jenna has always worried about others, but for the next two weeks, it's time to put herself first and simply have fun. When she makes a list of what that fun might entail, Colt is all too happy to help her check the items off--even the one about having a vacation fling. But what if two weeks of fantasy between strangers might actually have a shot in the real world, or will their final destination be two broken hearts?
